Apple's Eddy Cue reviews the new Steve Jobs documentary

Eddy Cue has always been Apple's entertainment guy — long serving as the leader of iTunes — so perhaps it's no surprise that he has some thoughts on one of the hottest documentaries at South by Southwest. Cue made it clear on Twitter this morning that he wasn't a fan of Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine, a documentary that highlights the dark sides of Jobs' life and work at Apple that many like to gloss over. That includes his refusals to acknowledge paternity of his daughter, the stress he put on Apple employees, and the major controversies that surrounded his company, such as the suicides at its manufacturing partner Foxconn. That may be part of why Cue isn't such a fan.
